Nowadays, as long as Nissan is mentioned, I believe that more than 90% of people first think of Dongfeng Nissan.
Zhengzhou Nissan, on the other hand, seems to have been mentioned.
The reason is that the current Zhengzhou Nissan has fallen lonely.
As a Henan native, the former Zhengzhou Nissan is our pride.
Because Zhengzhou Nissan has the reputation of "king of champions".
In 1993, Zhengzhou Nissan was officially established. At the same time, Zhengzhou Nissan is also nissan Co., Ltd.'s first vehicle joint venture in China.
As early as the beginning of 1999, Zhengzhou Nissan successfully introduced Nissan's D22 pickup truck. At that time, Zhengzhou Nissan could be said to be the leading car company in the field of pickup trucks in China.
In 2003, Zhengzhou Nissan launched the city SUV Palatin. It is this car that makes Zhengzhou Nissan famous.
In January 2004, the Zhengzhou Nissan team composed of Paladin successfully challenged the 26th Jetta Karl Rally, opening a new era of domestic car companies participating in the world's top car races, ranking 57th.
In 2005, Zhengzhou Nissan Paladin Team once again challenged the 20th Jetta Karl Rally, and the best result was 19th, which can be said to have created a new record in the history of China's automobile industry and Chinese automobile sports.
At the same time, in 2004 and 2005, Zhengzhou Nissan D22 pickup truck also won the titles of China's first brand of senior pickup truck quality user satisfaction and China's best pickup truck award.
After that, Zhengzhou Nissan successively launched pickup truck models such as the Ruiqi 6 and Navarra.
At the Tour de Tara in June 2019, Zhengzhou Nissan not only successfully defended the championship, but also won the T2 mass production group championship and the T2.1 gasoline mass production group manufacturers' cup championship respectively.
In the Silk Road International Rally held in September of the same year, Zhengzhou Nissan once again won the championship of the manufacturer team and the first and second place of the mass production car.
It is no exaggeration to say that the former Zhengzhou Nissan is a veritable "king of champions".
Even with more honors and more glory, since Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. acquired the shares of Zhengzhou Nissan from CITIC Group Holdings in 2004 and became the controlling shareholder of Zhengzhou Nissan, the fate of Zhengzhou Nissan seems to be doomed.
Look at the models under Zhengzhou Nissan now, basically all of which are eliminated by Zhengzhou Nissan, change the car logo and change the name to continue to sell.
Not only are these cars technically old, but they also don't have any competitiveness in terms of appearance and fuel consumption.
In my opinion, the current Zhengzhou Nissan is more like the production line of Dongfeng Nissan.
I have been thinking about this question: If it was not Dongfeng Motor Co., Ltd. that acquired the shares of Zhengzhou Nissan at that time, what would Zhengzhou Nissan look like today?
Unfortunately, there are no ifs.
